Waves 2023 is going to be the grandest cultural extravaganza in Goa, solidifying its position as one of the biggest cultural fests in the country.

A minimum of 60 per cent each in Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Mathematics and an aggregate score of 75 per cent is required.
Fee for the applications, which can be filed online, is Rs 2,950 for general candidates. Female applicants will have to pay Rs 2,450.
The three-hour-long examination, which will be conducted in the English language and will be online, will be held across 50 cities. Corrections in application can be made from 15-19 March.
Applicants can download the admit card from the official website from 12 April to 10 May.
Meanwhile, the IITs have reportedly requested BITS Pilani to join their counselling process, JoSAA, for BTech admissions this year to prevent students admitted to the IITs or NITs from quitting if they later obtain a preferred branch at Pilani.
If BITS Pilani hold its separate counselling, a student would often “block” a seat in an IIT or NIT till he finds out what Pilani could offer. The problem can only be addressed by having a common counselling. However, no response has yet been obtained from the authorities at BITS.
